Iulie.

VVhat time sleepes Nurse the silent night begun To steale by minutes on the long-liu'd dayes, The furious dog-starre chasing of the sunne, Whose scorching breath adds flames vnto his raies, At whose approch the angry Lyon braies, The earth now warm'd in her celestiall fire, To coole her heate, puts off her rich attire. M. Drayton.
